ETEC 530 Course Lesson Plan SummaryThe #gamecode will be linked out through twitter and other open platforms. Learners will be welcome in the community based on their desire to learn. The course content will always be "open" to anyone, but the course will not start until May 2013.

All of the learners, including the facilitator, will collaborate and learn together in an open networked community. This social constructivist "open online course workshop" designed around specific topics (scaffolded), a focus on the learner's previous knowledge, a group project (continuums) and my own desire to learn in the ope . The course objectives are stated, predictions are encouraged, roles are clarified, [[#|schedule]] created, problem identified, community is developed, feedback is encouraged and projects are created. Together, the teacher and the "learner" [[#|participants]] will create new learning together. The synchronous course collaboration and development of community through networks is an example of how a ZPD or Zone of Proximal Development could be created. (Vygotsky) The course transitions into a community and the learning never ends.
